đŧ Mental Health Matters â For Us Too đŧ
On the eve of Autism Awareness Month, Aastha organized a deeply meaningful webinar today (30th April) focusing on an often overlooked yet crucial aspect â the mental health of parents of differently abled children.
As parents, we constantly strive to support our children, nurture their growth, and stand strong for them. In doing so, we often carry silent stress, emotional fatigue, and countless unspoken worries. Todayâs session gently reminded us that our well-being matters just as much.
The session was beautifully conducted by Ms. Sishmi Guha, Teacher at Netaji Girls' High School, Siliguri. Through her insightful approach using emotional intelligence and self-awareness, she helped us reflect on our emotions, understand our stress, and learn how to respond mindfully to lifeâs everyday challenges.
đ Key takeaway:
When we take care of our own mental health, we become stronger, more resilient, and better equipped to support our childrenâs journey.
A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Shishmi Guha for guiding us towards balance, resilience, and emotional well-being.
Together, letâs continue to support not just our children, but also ourselves. đ
